Seems like you have a variant of smitfraud. use the tool from the link below to remove it, remember scan in safe mode and the tool will make your desktop wallpaper go blue if the smitfraud hasn't done that already, After scanning in safe mode just put your desktop wallpaper back as normal.

Answer 4

It is very likely a Smitfraud infection. Fake and phony 'warnings' to try and con you into purchasing a rogue software to 'fix' the problem.

It should actually be called extortion-ware. First they infect your computer and then they want money to 'cure' it.

All of these are specialised removal tools for this type of fake, rogue advertising of useless malware removal softwares. (Zlob/Smitfraud infections.).

SmitfraudFix:

Almost all "general purpose","all-in one" spyware and virus removal programs such as AVG Anti-virus, Norton, McAfee or Spybot S & D cannot remove it, as you may have already found out.

Answer 5

First run smitfraud removal tool:
